DaBeast Films: A Day On Campus

We’re taking a break from the “World Wide Warriors” series to bring you the first episode of DaBeast Films for the 2012-13 season.

Davis Rozitis and his home country of Latvia were just featured on World Wide Warriors, so the timing is appropriate to bring you his latest behind-the-scenes videos with the Hawai’i basketball team.

Rozitis, a 7-foot junior forward, introduced DaBeast Films last season, and it proved to be a hit with the fans. He promised during the summer that he would provide more video clips this season and he has delivered.

In this episode, he takes a walk around the UH-Manoa campus and runs into the team’s “lei girl” Maria Ignacio. Rozitis conducts an interview with her, and finds out why she doesn’t hug any of the opposing players.

Later in the video, Rozitis walks through the UH basketball offices and has a chat with assistant coach Brandyn Akana about the island of Moloka’i.

Rozitis has agreed to provide more video clips throughout this season and is open to suggestions about people or places he can visit as subjects. If any of you have ideas for DaBeast Films, please post them in the Comments below and we’ll pass them along.

Thanks Davis and Dayton. I remember back in the days there was nil—information on UH MBB. And living on Maui back then it was even worse as the local paper rarely wrote any articles. Thank God for television coverage. Remember Les Keiter? Gabby Pahinui song commercial? Classics. In those days I drooled for anything MBB. Thankfully my father enjoyed the games too so I had a partner to talk basketball. Those where the days. Maybe with WI coverage it will become classic in its own right. Interesting how internet brings people of common interests together who share a passion—UH MBB. Haha my co-workers are sick of my basketball subjects. Thanks again guys.

Davis great work, you could have future career in multimedia, TV, internet, film?

Does your camera have a steady lens feature. When you walk , the camera really bounces up and down, and pans , get dizzying, ..think you have to smooth out, otherwise, it is like a merry go round, or space mountain ride..

However, you are quite entertaining , and very amusing and friendly student athlete. great interview for Dayton and representative of UH MBB on court and off!!

Thanks for being part of UH MBB team and future success!!

Go up strong Davis ,and flush that ball!! Have a great season, and wish the best to your whole team and your coaching staff!!
